The Big Short: Oscar 2016

Autor Michael Lewis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 dec 2015
The #1 New York Times bestseller-Now a Major Motion Picture from Paramount Pictures
From the author of The Blind Side and Moneyball, The Big Short tells the story of four outsiders in the world of high-finance who predict the credit and housing bubble collapse before anyone else. The film adaptation by Adam McKay (Anchorman I and II, The Other Guys) features Academy Award(r) winners Christian Bale, Brad Pitt, Melissa Leo and Marisa Tomei; Academy Award(r) nominees Steve Carell and Ryan Gosling.
When the crash of the U.S. stock market became public knowledge in the fall of 2008, it was already old news. The real crash, the silent crash, had taken place over the previous year, in bizarre feeder markets where the sun doesn't shine and the SEC doesn't dare, or bother, to tread. Who understood the risk inherent in the assumption of ever-rising real estate prices, a risk compounded daily by the creation of those arcane, artificial securities loosely based on piles of doubtful mortgages? In this fitting sequel to Liar's Poker, Michael Lewis answers that question in a narrative brimming with indignation and dark humor.

Recenzii

It's time to throw another tank of petrol on the Wall Street pyre, as only Lewis can
He is so good everyone else may as well pack up
No one writes with more narrative panache about money and finance than Mr. Lewis
Probably the single best piece of financial journalism ever written
Hugely entertaining
Terrifying and superbly told
Genius
Compelling and horrifying
A more than worthy successor to Liar's Poker ... if you want to know about the origins of the credit crunch, and the extraordinary cast of misfits, visionaries and chancers who made money from the crash, there's no more readable account
A triumph ... riveting ... a genuine page-turner
The very best book about this whole affair
If you read only one book about the causes of the recent financial crisis, let it be Michael Lewis'sThe Big Short
In the hands of Michael Lewis, anything is possible ... if you want to know how a nation lost its financial mind - and have a good laugh finding out - this is the book to read.
Magnificent ... a perfect storm of brilliant writer meeting big subject.
